I don't think that Pasti support HD (1.44 MB) format. Also, don't think that all those Falcon games are on HD floppies. So, what you need is: some ST, STE . Falcon is not suitable for Pasti imaging. Usage is actually pretty simple, when you know what doing If no hard disk on ST(E) then it is little more work - need to prepare transfer floppy . If no access to ST(E) then best to send, bring those floppies to someone who has. Instruction for imaging: http://www.atarimania.com/atari_forum/v ... =32&t=2528

Famous Schrodinger's cat hypothetical experiment says that cat is dead or alive until we open box and see condition of poor animal, which deserved better logic. Cat is always in some certain state - regardless from is observer able or not to see what the state is.

Ishar 2 has copy protection on disk 1. Additionally there is some manual protection activating randomly at later stages. What I don't see here is: is LaurentS having special Falcon version of Ishar II, or it is just regular one, Falcon compatible ?

According to Atarimania Ishar 2 release from 1993 is Falcon compatible too. So, my best idea is that it is noticed on Package. It would be good that LaurentS perform that Show Info in Desktop and then will see what is capacity of floppies

Here is ISHAR2, based on 3 floppy release (Pasti images at Atarimania), with removed copy protection. It works well on Falcon, from hard drive. Manual protection is still there, so be ready that will ask some words during play.

Btw. someone should move last 8 messages here into some other section. This really belongs not in most wanted images. Nothing listed there except Apex Media is not missing.

All the disks are the falcon version (256 colors, 1,44 mo).I've got the manuals (if needed I can scan them).

I've played a bit to Ishaar 2 lask week and I didn't keep the floppy into the drive (but maybe I didn't play long enough).

I haven't seen the falcon versions of the games under atarimania, but just the ST version (I may be wrong).I know these games can be found on Tof site : http://christophe.bray.free.fr/informatique/ (I think the programs are the cracked ones, not the originals).

If disks are 1.44 MB (HD) you can not make images of copy protected ones. Then best to organize it with someone who owns SCP device.For not copy protected stuff this may serve: http://atari.8bitchip.info/floimgd.phpPossible that Falcon version of Ishar 2 is not copy protected. Copy protection activates right before game start, and no such by Falcon v. to make it hard disk installable.

The silmarils on disk protection is normally tested before the silmarils logo appears on screen. One sure way to verify this matter is to checkthe game manual.

Silmarils stated for earlier releases that the game had a copy protection (detailed in the hard drive installation process).

I'm asking here if I can help with preservation of originals.

Yes you can, but you need one of the two systems actually available : either the supercard pro (if you want to get a bit 2 bit copy from your original disks), or the kryoflux system (made expressively for preservation purposes).

Now SPS France representative since the 19th of June 2014. Proud to be an SPS member !

Resurrecting an old subject. I also have a couple of Falcon originals and SuperCard Pro. So which settings to use for Falcon preservation? Disks are in HD format so should i go with PC 1.44 mode or with Atari ST mode? Does the software automatically read the disk config for correct sectors/tracks or should i edit something manually?
